Roll Up Chess Set, Executive Edition, 51x51cm

Roll Up Chess Set is an abstract strategy game and involves no hidden information. It is played on a square chessboard with 64 squares arranged in an eight-by-eight grid. At the start, each player (one controlling the white pieces, the other controlling the black pieces) controls sixteen pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent’s king, whereby the king is under immediate attack (in “check”) and there is no way for it to escape. There are also several ways a game can end in a draw.

Benefits of Playing Roll Up Chess Set:

Failures are a problem. This is seen as a game of intelligence. Chess players are generally thought to have high IQs. A survey of 4,000 students in Venezuela shows that after four months of chess education, boys and girls and IQ have made considerable progress.
Chess teaches planning and foresight. Young people playing chess help develop brain planning, judgment and self-control. Failure-based strategy games help brain development and make better decisions in a variety of life situations.
